“Jiaru is very responsible annd kind and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Our house was spotless when we got home and our dog was happy. We won’t hesitate to ask her to help us again.”
“Kat & David are very thoughtful and accommodating people. I had a last minute booking with them and they made it very easy for me to leave our Rottweiller in their loving care. Thanks again!”
“I can’t recommend Haley highly enough! This was the first time I’d ever left my two-year-old dog for five nights, so I was incredibly anxious about being away from him for that long. Haley put my mind completely at ease. She was reliable, incredibly responsive, and sent me so many updates and photos throughout my trip, which meant the world to me. It was obvious how much she genuinely cared for my dog, and by the time I got home, it was clear he absolutely adored her. She also left my home spotless and truly went above and beyond in every way. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely passionate about animals, I would recommend Haley without hesitation. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was a kid, and fostering animals since university! I am now a student at Atlantic Veterinary College and will be graduating in 2029. I have a background in small animal medicine as well as working with animals from shelters. I also worked at a pet supply store for a year. I am a student who has classes from 830-4pm most days with an hour lunch break. I am happy to bring your pets for walks in the morning, over my lunch, or in the evenings after school. If I am pet sitting I will be able to check in on them as well on this schedule. If your pet requires spending time in my home, I have 3 cats who are very friendly and have spent time with both other cats and dogs.
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other pets since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, train, and comfort pets of all types. I’m calm, patient, and great with animals that need a little extra emotional care. I’m familiar with dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I’m a quick learner—whether it’s a new breed, species, or special routine, I’ll adapt fast and care with love. I’m currently on summer break and have a completely flexible schedule. I’m available most days and evenings for pet care, and I’m using this time to do something I genuinely love. If I wasn’t broke, I’d honestly still do this for the joy it brings me—because spending time with animals is one of the most healing and fulfilling things in my life. I currently offer drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I also welcome calm cats for short-term boarding in my bedroom. It’s a quiet, clean space where I can give full attention and comfort. As much as I love dogs, I don’t have the space to board them right now. I always follow care instructions, keep things hygienic, and make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved.
About: I am happy to adapt and adjust to the needs of your pet so they feel loved and comfortable. I had a very high maintenance mini bernadoodle Sadie for 15 years who required a lot of special care with many unique quirks. I’ve cared for reactive dogs and am very patient with any needs, including giving medication. I have an account on trusted house sitters and have been trusted caring for many homes and pets in Canada and Australia throughout my travels. I am currently studying part time online so am home most of the day except for the off appointment requiring me to be out for an hour or 2. I don’t have any pets, there’s a trail near my home and I am happy to follow any accommodations that your pets require from me!
“Our experience with Charlotte was excellent. She is reliable, kind and conscientious. Our dog was clearly very well looked after and so was our home. We would hire Charlotte again in a heartbeat. Thank you Charlotte”
About: I provide patient, personalized care for every pet, including energetic puppies and senior pets needing extra attention, while maintaining their routines, comfort and safety in their homes. I recently retired, which gives me the flexibility to make pet care a regular part of my daily routine for pet sitting, walks and drop-in visits. I provide safe, attentive care in your pet’s home, following their normal routines and instructions while they feel comfortable, secure, loved and well cared for.
“Lydia did a wonderful job of taking care of Archie and our home. Archie is a little shy but warmed right up to her. She took him for lots of walks, even in the rain. I’d highly recommend Lydia. We were able to relax and enjoy our weekend as we felt very comfortable leaving Archie in her care.”

Kina was wonderful staying at our house with our 1 year old dog - and only just 1, so a big puppy still! Our pup is a big breed with some separation anxiety - and this was her first time without us home. Kina was great at keeping her company and keeping her calm. She was great with walks, feeding, treats, and yard play. And we also appreciated the communication and photo updates - we’d highly recommend!
Jane took excellent care of my 2-year-old Border-Aussie Bernie while staying overnight for three nights. I felt completely confident leaving him in her hands while I was away. She provided consistent updates and photos, which I really appreciated, and it was clear he was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter!
Rachel was amazing. She made sure our girls were comfortable with her before she looked after them for the week and provided updates while we were away. We have not seen them so comfortable with someone else! I would highly recommend Rachel with her incredible knowledge on animals and respect for your home.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Charlottetown maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Charlottetown walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Charlottetown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, a background check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
